Australian forestry contractor organisations combineFriday 15 Feb 2013 Tasmanian Forest Contractors Association (TFCA) Chair, Karen Hall, together with Australian Forest Contractors Association (AFCA) Chair, Ian Reid, have announced a restructure of the administration of both organisations and a management arrangement covering both Forest Contractor Associations.The move has come about as a consequence of ongoing re-structuring of the Forest Industry across Australia and has led to a review of staffing within both organisations. It also recognises that much Forest Industry policy is now nationally based, with major issues including biomass, bioenergy, carbon farming and new generation forest products being firmly in the national policy arena. There will be significant resource sharing, including the position of CEO, who will provide services to all members of both organisations. AFCA CEO Colin McCulloch, will assume the joint role, whilst the TFCA CEO position held by Ed Vincent for almost three years, during the intense involvement in the Tasmanian Forest Agreement talks, has now expired. AFCA/TFCA will continue to be based in Kings Meadows & will be supported by TFCA administration staff.  |
